Rough nights for Gordon and Dalembert, revisiting the fouling argument, and more

1. You know it's coming, so let me get it out of the way: When you're up by three in the last 10 seconds, for goodness sake, people, foul! How many game-tying 3s do we need to watch before coaches realize this might be a good idea?

The really amazing part Thursday night was that the Bulls remembered they had a foul to give, and used it but then instead of giving another foul and basically clinching the game, they let two Celtics dribble around before Ray Allen found a spot he liked and drained a game-tying 3.
